An awareness of your own relative affluence can inspire you to seek out opportunities to support others today, Whether you choose to make a gift of resources to a philanthropic organization or to work directly with those in need, the satisfaction you feel can warm your heart. You may be surprised to discover that your conception of self changes as you devote yourself to selfless pursuits. As you come to realize that within you lies the potential to foment great change in the world, you may feel that for the first time in your life you are truly useful. If you latch on to these feelings of purposefulness today, your self-worth can continue to grow.

We are more apt to judge ourselves to be valuable as individuals when we have committed ourselves to causes that allow us to make a difference in the lives of others. Our ability to make a favorable assessment of ourselves is based on the fact that we have evidence of our worth in the form of the gratitude we have received for our contributions. As part of something larger than ourselves, we can promote the values most important to us through positive action. We not only give voice to the principles we hold dear but we also ensure they can flourish by providing a foundation of selflessness. Since we feel useful, we can clearly see that the world would be a very different place if we ceased to exist. The aid and succor you give others today will help you understand how important you are.
